That is sweet! Gives me ideas for things I could use my crumbs on!

I like looking at it and thinking of where all the fabric scraps came from - dresses, baby quilts, this year's Christmas project, etc.

I got a Nook last year and I love your cover much better than the one I bought to go with the nook. Was it easy to make and can you tell me how you made the cover?

I also got a nook reader for Christmas and I was thinking about making a cover, but we were at B&N and my husband said, Oh, just buy one, so I did, but I really love yours and I may just make one anyway for a change as I have tons of scraps. BTW, love my Nook Reader.

Really cute!! I love it! I want to make another "outfit" for my Kindle. Mine is not pieced and I want a scrappy one! I have the perfect leftovers from Christmas gifts.

Isn't it nice that we can make a fashion statement with our scraps
